Re: [Python-Dev] [python-committers] Do we need to sign Windows files with GnuPG?

[Kurt B. Kaiser]

For the record, that is a Symantec/Verisign code signing certificate. We
paid $1123 for it last April.  It expires April 2017.

If you don't switch to a different vendor, e.g. startssl, please contact
me for renewal in 2017.

Agree - apparently the starlssl process for getting a signing cert is
complex/obscure, so we should start early.

Let me know if I can help providing PSF organization verification.

[Python-Dev] IDLE in the stdlib

It seems to me that we are seeing increasing use of IDLE for beginner
training. I've seen several recent Python books that use IDLE as their
programming environment, and which include IDLE screen captures in the
text.

I've always felt that IDLE should be targeted to an eight year old
beginner, and should work uniformly across the major platforms.  That
now
includes the Raspberry Pi!!

I believe it's very important that Python come with an IDE as part of
the
"batteries"  - it's very awkward for a beginner to write code in
something
like Notepad and then run and debug it in a Windows command shell. Just
getting the paths right is problematic (and I'm not talking about
backslashes).

It's very helpful for an instructor to be able to deal with a single
application that runs on all the major platforms, and not have to spend
a
lot of time getting the tools up to speed before the actual Python
training can begin.

And, while an instructor can walk a student through downloading and
installing some IDE, it's very helpful IMHO for a beginner working alone
on Windows or Mac to be able to just click on IDLE.

A Raspberry Pi might not even have a web connection!

IDLE has a single keystroke round trip - it's an IDE, not just an editor
like Sublime Text or Notepad.  In the 21st century, people expect some
sort of IDE.  Or, they should!

IDLE forked nearly a decade ago to introduce subprocess execution and
the
configuration dialog.  Subsequently, I merged it back into core and it
played a useful role in Python 3 development.

Scheme hackers write new Scheme implementations.  Python hackers tend to
write editors and IDEs, it seems.  I think, considering all the
competition, that IDLE would have died if it hadn't been merged back. 
Instead, many of its competitors died.

So, although I'm pretty agnostic regarding where development is done, I
think Python should continue to release a simple native IDE in its
binaries, and I worry that IDLE will be eventually dropped from the
binaries if it's separate. Right now, Apple is delivering IDLE along
with
Python (though there are issues with the current installation) and I
hope
that will continue.

OTOH, development is likely to be more vigorous if it's separate.

I'd also like to make a plea to keep IDLE's interface clean and basic. 
There are lots of complex IDEs available for those who want them.  It's
natural for developers to add features, that's what they do :-), but you
don't hand a novice a Ferrari (or emacs) and expect good results.  IMHO
some of the feature patches on the tracker should be rejected on that
basis.

It's sometimes said that IDLE is "ugly" or "broken".  These terms are
subjective!  If it's truly broken, then we should fix it.  If it's
"broken" because a feature is missing, maybe that's an intentional part
of
Guido's design of a simple Python IDE.

And yet many books do - it's really ugly.  When I see a book with a
bunch of DOS windows, white on black, printed on cheap paper, 900 pages,
I just put it back on the shelf.  Quickly.

Well, spending a lot of time backporting new features is not my idea of
fun. OTOH, I have no objection.  Maybe we could automate checkpoints of
IDLE into PyPI or somewhere for those who don't care to pull from hg,
yet want to be on the cutting  edge?

Along those lines, I've thought that IDLE should refrain from using the
newest features in Python, to allow people running released versions of
Python to access the newest IDLE.  i.e. Python 3.4 innovations would not
be used in IDLE 3.4.  Only Python 3.3 and earlier innovations.

Oh, I agree with that.  Distributed version control can lead to chaos
and dilution of effort.

I don't know if this is the place to comment on PEP 434 (is it?), but
I've always taken the approach that IDLE development should be less
formal than the rest of stdlib, since it's not a dependency.  Big
changes should be reserved for the tip, but I don't see why something
like the right click menu change shouldn't be backported.

I think we should try a more relaxed idlelib development process inside
core before we move it out, and should be generous about adding checkin
permissions for that purpose.  Rietveld will help.  It's a good way to
habilitate new developers.

I have commented over the years, but lately I've been so distracted by
the Treasurer job that I haven't found much time for IDLE.  And as I was
telling Ned here at PyCon, when you step off the train, it can be hard
to get back on.

I've tried to channel Guido over the years.  I looked at what he did,
and tried to project forward.

IDLE-dev is still active.  Would anyone else like to be a moderator?

IDLE development has always been organic, as opposed to the formal
approach of the PEPs.  What we need is a Zen of IDLE.  When I look at
it, I see a simple IDE.  I try to adhere to the principle of least
surprise, and to maintain an uncluttered interface suitable for
beginners.  Expert features can be there, but somewhat hidden (though
they should be documented!) or implemented as disabled extensions.

IDLE tries to promote Pythonic style.  For example, the lack of a
horizontal scroll bar was deliberate, I think.

We should implement the patch that adds an extension

If you haven't used IDLE lately, you might want to try it.

Well, they will feel the need in less than a day, IMHO.  These days,
beginning users are accustomed to a GUI that "does something", not a
command line, it seems.

Right, they don't know what they need, at first.  We should provide an
interface that, in our experience, meets a beginner's needs.

None.

But IDLE has plenty of features - and minimum clutter.  It also works
very well on small screens.

That's not the target audience for IDLE.  There are many great IDEs for
"experienced" developers.

It's not my objective to turn IDLE into PyCharm, just to keep some
developers motivated.  Good design satisfies the target audience - IMHO,
we should be working towards the best possible beginner Python interface
on Windows, Mac, and Raspberry Pi.

To get this done, we need IDLE developers who are interested in
supporting beginners.  Not so much developers who are interested in
adding complex features for their more advanced usage.

The complex IDE space is packed - it doesn't need another entry.  OTOH,
there are few simple IDEs like IDLE.  It's a good niche to be in.

And, yes, getting the IDLE developers to use IDLE is important - I do
so most of the time (emacs for the rest :).  That helps to discover
IDLE and tkinter bugs, and occasionally exposes the need for a
missing feature.

Please don't put words in my mouth.  I only said those terms are
subjective, which they are.

Please don't allege actions I haven't taken!

I agree entirely with you - one has to dig deeper to extract some
constructive criticism, if it is available.

Often, you can't address one person's idea of ugly or broken without
raising those issues with another person.

Particularly on Windows, there is an expectation that a contemporary
programming language comes with a GUI.  Using the Windows Python shell
isn't very satisfactory, largely because of the poor file handling
capability in that environment.  IDLE provides a simple solution,
suitable for beginners as well as experts.  It provides one-keystroke
save/run in a fresh environment not associated with the GUI.  I have run
IDLE inside IDLE (though I'm not positive that will work right now).
How many IDEs can do that?

I've tried to channel Guido, and my general approach has been to provide
as much functionality as needed, but to hide the more advanced features
to avoid clutter.  When the 'experts' need them, they will find them.

I'm mystified about the comments that the GUI is ugly.  It is minimal.
On XP, it looks exactly like an XP window with a simple menubar.  Those
who haven't looked at it for awhile may not be aware of the recent
advances made by Tk in native look and feel.  What is ugly?

And IDLE is cross-platform.  There are perhaps deficiencies on the Mac,
but Ron has made good progress.  I haven't been able to come up with a
Mac yet, so I can't really comment.

IDLE works on 2.7 and 3.x.  Running IDLE on the trunk is a decent
test of Python and tkinter during development.

It seems that people who do Scheme write Scheme implementations, while
people who do Python write IDEs :-)

Usually, they keep adding features and buttons until it looks like
Eclipse.  That's fine.  But why turn IDLE into another example of that
style and diminish diversity in doing so?

On a netbook, screen space is at a premium, and a simple interface has
advantages.  There are many IDEs listed on the wiki if people are
looking for the more complex style, but I'd suggest that they aren't
appropriate for beginners.  And by beginners, I include elementary
school students.

IDLE works with "extensions".  Plug-ins, if you will.  The Option dialog
needs enhancement to support extension selection, and I believe there is
a patch to do that.  More extensions would be a good thing.

The .idlerc directory determines IDLE's configuration, including the
help source urls available on the Help menu.  By downloading .idlerc or
via indirection, a student environment can be set up including the day's
lesson and which extensions are activated.  Call tips and method name
completion can be "hidden" by increasing the time delay before they pop
up.

Tal has made a couple of comments about not being able to run multiple
IDLEs at the same time, and he mentions

http://bugs.python.org/issue1529142

This bug has been closed for over a year, and you can run as many IDLEs
as you like.  You can run 2.7 and 3.x at the same time.  I would have
expected Tal to know that.

Also, the current right click edit action on Windows is to only open an
edit window; no shell.  And it uses the subprocess!  So, some of the
comments on this thread are not up to date.

The reason that bug languished for two years was because first, it was a
bit of a hack, and second, Windows was problematic in that it reused
sockets and often left zombie subprocesses behind which couldn't be
killed except with the task manager.  This causes real problems with
students - they lose confidence in the tool.

Scherer and Weeble put together a patch using ephemeral ports which
nailed the problem, and I checked it in right away and
forward/backported it.

As I recollect, much of what Scherer did in VIDLE related to running
multiple IDLE copies.

For that reason, the VIDLE changes have to be evaluated carefully to
determine what has already been incorporated.  I believe I added a
couple of his smaller changes, also.

Bruce, speaking of Dave Scherer, we've been trying to get a Python
Contributor Agreement from him.  Is that something you can help us wit

Apparently you haven't looked recently.  If you'd describe specifically

Well, I use it :-)  I used to use emacs to develop IDLE, but as IDLE
became more capable, I stopped using emacs (except to fix IDLE when I
break it completely :) When I find something I really miss, I add it.
But I don't just add features to check off a list.

Search on the status bar and jump to definition are next.

On Windows, IDLE opens when you right click / edit a .py. Very useful.

On linux, the packagers generally split IDLE off into a separate package
so Python can be installed without Tcl/Tk.  That doesn't mean it should
be removed from the tarball; their package build tools build several
packages from the single tarball at the same time.  Second guessing them
by having two tarballs just increases the work for everyone.

This could be done on Windows, but then you wouldn't have a GUI to use
right after running the Python installer.  Minimal installations are not
so important on Windows.

That's because Linux isn't using Tk 8.5 yet.  Debian defaults to Tk 8.5
in experimental since March.  Most Linux is Tk 8.4.

On Windows, our installer is using 8.5.  Here's a screenshot from my 
eeePC, 1024 x 600:

Tal, you've got some catching up to do, yourself.  Tile went into Tk in
8.5, two years ago.  Linux is behind, we don't control that, but our
Windows installer and tkinter is cutting edge!  Thanks, Martin!  I don't
know what version is running on the Mac:

http://blog.markroseman.com/2007/12/tcltk-85-first.html


I've got an ancient Python 2.5.1 running in Gnome/gNewSense using Tk
8.4.  I think you guys are  exaggerating.  It's not /all/ that ugly, not by a
long shot.  It's just not native look and feel (yet).

Looks much better in 8.5 and the shortcuts work.

Pull down the format menu.  The dedent hotkey is Ctrl+[

This possibly could be changed to Shift+Tab by the user, but there may
be conflicts with completion.

We had major contributions from David Scherer, Guido, and Stephen Gava.

But a key factor in its success was that I took it upon myself to keep
IDLEfork sync'd with core IDLE using a cvs vendor branch and frequent
merges.  Once the project was completed, I arranged with SF to move the
IDLEfork repository, including history, back into Python.

This was not done with Noam's branch.  As a result, it gradually drifted
to the point where it became essentially unmergable.

Once we switch to Hg, we should be able to use distributed vc and topic
branches to facilitate community participation without the need for a
separate project.  None of this is automatic, of course, it requires
diligence, planning, and clean topic patches.

There's no reason why we couldn't release interim IDLE testing packages
from somewhere other than python.org (for those that don't want to track
IDLE's Hg repo).  To do this successfully, we would need to avoid using
new Python features being introduced during that development cycle,
i.e. IDLE would be compatible with the previous Python release.

What distro are you using?  Tk8.6 is still in beta.

Fine, I showed it as an example of the improvement in 8.5.  Most people,
I think, are using Windows or Macs.  Looks decent, don't you think?

I don't have Tk8.5 running under Linux yet, much less 8.6.  But the Tk
release docs claim improvement under X11.

It's possible we may have to use Tk theming to get full benefit of the
Tile improvements in X11.

Right, I stay away from working on Tk.  It's not even a tkinter issue.
I hope it will continue to get better, but I imagine it's a moving 
target for the Tk developers.

In your case, just bring up Wing.  That'll impress them.  As long as
it's not on netbook :-)

Although the corner can be dragged, that would be useful.  As I

No, these are worthwhile improvements, and not too difficult.

There were several contributing factors.  I decided to stop committing
new features in 2.7 and focus on bugs for several reasons.  First, IDLE3
needed work to get it running smoothly.  Second, committing, forward
porting and running the (manual) functional tests on a bunch of small
features was a bit of a pain.  Third, leaving the new features to IDLE3
was a draw to get people to use the new version.  Then, about two years
ago, I got buried with PSF/PyCon issues.

If you'll look back in the IDLE NEWS, you'll see I was giving your
patches quite a bit of attention.

So never say never.

It should be the second item on the right click context menu when
hovering over a .py.  If not, check your Windows Explorer / Tools /
Folder Options / File Types / Advanced.  There should be an "Edit with
IDLE" in the dialog selection box.  Perhaps you overrode it at some
point.

I've found that whatever version of IDLE is installed last grabs this
function.

If you build from svn, you don't get it, of course, unless you set it
manually.  And, you can use the manual setting to select a specific
Python/IDLE version.

No, it's your system configuration, 99% probable.

I've not had experience with patches from Terry.  I don't think there are
any in IDLE, at least not acknowledged in NEWS.

I'd suggest giving him Tracker access and start out working with the
patch submitters to update their patches to Py3, followed by a patch
review and triage.  He could unset all the bugs/patches assigned to me.

I don't consider that I "own" IDLE.  I've put quite a bit of time into
it, and expect to continue.  But I'd welcome help!

I only hope to keep to roughly the same stylistic philosophy, and hope
I'm still channeling Guido accurately.

In addition, like the rest of the library, IDLE should be an example of
good Python code.  But there is some cruft in there.  Some just old
and/or unfinished, and some, like Multicall.py, rather obscure.
Multicall is needed because Tk forgets what modifier keys were depressed
when an event is generated.  I'm hoping Tk will grow a memory so 
Multicall can be simplified.

Is Options / Configure IDLE / Keys what you are looking for?  There are

+1

When we merged IDLEfork the consensus was to keep the versioning
separate.  But it seems confusing and is extra work for the release
managers.

-1

Right now IDLE has a button in the "About IDLE" dialog which accesses
the IDLE NEWS.txt file, and another which accesses Python's NEWS.
IDLE users may not want to grovel through all the Python changes to
find out what changed in the IDE.

It would be nice if the key IDLE changes could make it to the "What's New
in Python X.X".  If Andrew is interested, I could draft something for him.

I will look at these two.  RC1 seems reasonable.

I would have been inclined to make the other choice, i.e. 'p' as the
hotkey for print, rather than the rarely used "save copy as".

Yes, 2.6 for these two.

%=
\subsection{The IDLE Integrated Development Environment}

Calltips have been greatly improved and a class attribute listbox
provides completions.

When the Shell cursor is on a previous command,  retrieves
that command.  But instead of replacing the input line, the previous
command is appended, preserving indentation.  If there is an active
selection, the selection will be appended to the input line.

IDLE does a tabnanny and syntax check before every F5/Run.

A number of changes were made to improve Mac OSX compatibility.

The advanced keybinding dialog was enabled, allowing multiple
complex key combinations to be bound to a given IDLE event.

A number of improvements were made to the colorizer.

The 'with' statement is now a Code Context block opener.

IDLE honors the new quit() and exit() functions.

Keybindings were added for del-word-left and del-word-right.

Jim Jewett's suggestion could actually be misleading, IMO.

There are users, especially on Windows, who run IDLE out of svn or run
their own version, but don't build Python.

Here's my suggestion: we set IDLE_VERSION="" in idlever.py.  If the IDLE
hacker wants to set a specific version, he sets that string.  I'll change
the code so if the string is empty, IDLE will use the Python version, as
Jim suggested; otherwise, the user supplied string.

Don't ever do that!
1. The majority of these links are bogus.
2. The majority of the rest use your click to verify you are a working
   email address.  Then they sell the 'verified' list and you get even
   more spam.
3. Some of the links are fraudulent: they are phishing links which don't
   go where you expect, i.e. they use special characters to fool you.
   The result is you are directed to a site which infects your computer.

I think that's right, Linux and BSD distros (and no doubt OS X) provide
their own packaging of Python, while hackers sync with svn.

But it's also fair to say that most users run Windows, and as Python
goes mainstream, which seems to be the case lately, we should see an
even greater proportion of Windows/everthing_else Python installations.

Going mainstream :-))

The Rails buzz seems to be jumping to Python lately.

Yes, separate but related groups and issues.

MIT's adopting Python in their introductory programs will drive
other schools in our direction, I think.

Re: [Python-Dev] Mutable sequence .sort() signature

"Common Stumbling Blocks" section, as opposed to the "Other Language
Changes" section?

I can work up a short patch.

Yes, I see you changed those docs.  But I think we need to give better
notice that this is one of the py3k incompatibilities.

I'd say in PEP3100.  Here's a patch:

The bug report is derived from the bug and patch email lists, so that 
information isn't available without scraping it off SF.

However, the SF trackers can be set to query for Unassigned / Open.
It looks like about 2/3 of the open bugs and 3/4 of the open patches
are unassigned.  I often unassign IDLE bugs that I'm not planning to
fix right now, hoping that may encourage someone to step forward by
removing the illusion that something is happening.  Conversely, if I
make progress on an unassigned bug/patch, I'll assign it to myself as
an indication that it's being worked on, avoiding duplication of
effort.

I track IDLE bugs via the IDLE category.  That's very useful, maybe we
need more categories?

I'll take a shot at it.

I see the following:

2216 changes:

1428 modifications w/o confict
399 adds
360 removes
29 conflicts

Major conflict:
Python/compile.c(Probably not merged during 1st merge)
Lib/test/test_compile.c (ditto)
Lib/test/test_os.py (AST?)
Lib/test/test_re.py (AST?)


Major conflict probably not AST related:
Lib/test/test_bool.py
Lib/test/test_urllib.py
Lib/test/output/test_profile
Python/pythonrun.c (check brackets!)

Other issues: need local -kk to avoid another 80 conflicts due to the priceless
  keyword expansion, have to watch out for binary files like IDLE 
icons.

  ViewCVS is down, slows things up.

I'm going to tag the trunk: mrg_to_ast-branch_05JAN05

Hm, I saw this after making my previous post.

Well, you can see from that post that it's a bit of work, but not
overwhelming.

You have a better feel for how much change was made on ast-branch and
how complete the previous merge was.  So, you decide: if you want me
to do the merge, I can. But ast-branch-2 sounds OK, also.

So maybe it's not necessary to merge these two; just leave them behind? 
That would lighten the load quite a bit.

Looks like it's done.  I tagged ast-branch when I finished:

merged_from_MAIN_07JAN05

Right now I'm trying to get Python-ast.c to compile.  It wasn't
modified by the merge, so there's some other issue.

You're welcome!  I volunteer to keep ast-branch synch'd, how often
do you want to do it?

Yeah, the merge eliminated it from the symtable struct in symtable.h.
You moved it to symtable_entry at rev 2.12 in MAIN :-)

I'll research it.

Apparently my build differs enough so that I'm still stuck in
Python-ast.c (once I had fixed pythonrun.c).

OK, I was looking in that direction.  Problem is with cmpop stuff.
Three hard errors when compiling.

OpenBSD.

Is the plan to merge ast-branch to MAIN?  If so, it's a little tricky
since all the changes to MAIN are on ast-branch.  So just before the
final merge we need to merge MAIN to ast-branch once more and then
merge the diff from HEAD to ast-branch back to MAIN.  Or something
like that.

I think it would be more efficient if you tackled it since almost
all the work is in compile.c ==> newcompile.c

The relevant changes are

compile.c 2.286
symtable.h 2.12
symtable.c 2.11

I resolved all the errors/warnings and diffed to against respository.
I was astonished to see the same changes, slightly different, being
replaced by mine.  Those were /your/ tweaks.

Apparently the $(AST_H) $(AST_C): target ran and Python-ast.c was
recreated (without the changes).  It's not clear to me how/why that
happened.  I did start with a clean checkout, but it seems that the
target only runs if Python-ast.c and/or its .h are missing (they
should have been in the checkout), or older than Python.asdl, which
they are not.  I don't see them in the .cvsignore.

Very amusing.

I checked in a change which adds the st_tmpname element back to
symtable.  Temporary until someone gets time to evaluate the situation.

I believe the problem was caused by the fact that the dates in the
local tree aren't the repository dates, so it happened that
Parser/Python.adsl had a newer date than Python-ast.[ch].  I did a
clean install on my Debian system and got around the issue by touching
Python-ast.[c,h] before the build.  IMO ASDLGEN s/b a .phony target,
run manually as needed by the AST developer.  Otherwise there will be
no end of trouble when people try to build from CVS after the merge.

Absent objection, I'll check in such a change.

== 
The tree compiles, but there is a segfault when make tries to run
Python on setup.py.  Failure occurs when trying to import site.py

==
Neal has fixed the import issue and several others!!  I was bitten by the
Python.asdl / Python-ast.[ch] timing again when updating to his changes

Branch now builds and python can be started.  There are a number of
test failures remaining.

Five is probably conservative.

Re: [Python-Dev] I think setup.py needs major rework

This may be more due to the complexity of distutils than to setup.py
itself.  Special cases are special cases, after all, e.g. look at
Autotools.

setup.py is billed as "Autodetecting setup.py script for building
the Python extensions" but exactly how to override it without hacking
it isn't very well documented, when possible at all.

"Distributing Python Modules" helped me, but the reference section
is missing, so it's utsl from there.

So one improvement would be to better document overriding setup.py in
README.

Your solution may be as simple as adding to Makefile:342 (approx)

--include-dirs= --library-dirs=

where setup.py is called.  (distutils/command/build_ext.py)

*But* I suspect build() may not pass the options through to build_ext()!

So, a config file approach:

.../src/setup.cfg:
[build_ext]
include-dirs=
library-dirs=


In setup.py, PyBuildExt.build_extension() does most of the special
casing.  The last thing done is to call PyBuildExt.detect_tkinter()
which handles a bunch of platform incompatibilities. e.g.

 # OpenBSD and FreeBSD use Tcl/Tk library names like libtcl83.a, but
 # the include subdirs are named like .../include/tcl8.3.

If the previous ideas flub, you could hack your detect_tkinter() and
append your include and lib dirs to inc_dirs and lib_dirs at the
beginning of the method.

All else fails, use Modules/Setup.dist to install Tcl/Tk?

Or maybe symlink your non-standard location?
